Week 39

Well... I'm at 39 weeks today and am SO ready to be done! Only 7 days to go until my official due date (2 days to go to Nov. 30th- the date given at our last ultrasound based on Isaac's size). I am a waddling duck for sure now... just waiting for my little guy to tell me "when" he'd like to come as I waddle my way around. I am extremely tired and ache all over. Today, I will be going to the doctor for a checkup. Josh wants to make sure we bring my hospital bag with us just in case they tell us we're staying. I wish! Isaac is doing well... we're just anxious to meet him! It hopefully won't be TOO long now!

How your baby's growing: Your baby's ready to greet the world! He continues to build a layer of fat to help control his body temperature after birth, but it's likely he already measures about 20 inches. Your baby's organs are fully developed and in place, and the outer layers of skin are sloughing off as new skin forms underneath.

How big is your baby?
Your baby is now between 18 and 20 ½ inches long and weighs around 6½ to 8 pounds.
